Gaming Another FreeBoot 9199 question

[overlord00]

Hey guys, just another quick question about upgrading to freeboot 9199.
just fixed up a new 360, and its on 6717 kernel (blades).
Most tutorials ask for your 7371 kernel dump, and as its not at that revision, not sure how to progress.
Should I upgrade to 7371 somehow (link someone?), or should i try going as is?

I know it is possible to use donner dumps, but to even get to that stage, should i need to go through 7371?

someone provide some details?

I went from 6717 to 9199, no issues. It's rare you'll come across a console with 7371, unless someone has applied the 7371 update. Even those consoles from the very last batch of Jtaggable Jaspers came with 7363 and not 7371.

What tk_saturn said although http://www.xboxhacker.org/index.php?topic=9414.0 is available if you want it. I think the update levels thing is more sanity than anything else (although properly early kernels/setups that you would usually use king kong on might trouble things- as I understand it the fixes for king kong provided the circumstances for JTAG to work; scroll down to zero pairing http://www.eurasia.nu/wiki/index.php/Free60JtagHack ).
